State, 644 N.E.2d 855 (Ind. 1994), our supreme court determined that a court commits fundamental error if it sends evidence to the jury over a defendant's objection after deliberations have begun, because such violates the defendant's substantial right to be present when the jury interrupts its deliberations to review evidence.
